The Kaduna State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has advised Governor Nasir El-Rufai to desist from making “reckless” statements that could further divide the residents along religious and ethnic lines.The Secretary of the CAN in Kaduna State, Rev. Sunday Ibrahim who spoke to journalists, noted that statistics had shown that Christians even have the higher population in the state by five percent.

He said: “It is very surprising to hear that coming from the Governor. What I know is that there are data that could be made available to whoever that cares to see.We are very surprised at the statement because the Christian and Muslim population is about 50/50. In fact, some data show that Christians are 55 percent and Muslim are 45 percent in terms of population.

“For the governor to say Muslims have 70 percent population of Kaduna State while Christians have 30 percent is shocking indeed. On what statistics did he base his submission?His handlers should have verified the claim and save him from the embarrassment he caused himself on a national television. We say NO to that very pronouncement; we don’t accept it to be true.

“His comment has the tendency of further dividing Kaduna along religious line; it could bring cause more problems.

“We urge Governor El-Rufai to henceforth try to verify issues that are very sensitive before voicing such out,” the CAN scribe said.

Woow. So CAN has a mouth ?

If Islam and Christianity were the ONLY religion left on earth, I will become an atheist.

Feelers around PBAT indicates he is open to more states creation and willing to be the first civilian government to create states. I'm sure Kaduna will be the first state to be divided.

Rule 2

Can the cancerworm should just keep quite, where are they when the new governor of Rivers said boldly that His is Cristian state? Have can ever condemned wike who also said the same thing? That is why I like Muric's professor Ishaka. He is know for standing for victims Muslims regardless of hypocrite want or not

Division is all I see.

If Muslims are not the majority with over 70% population in Kaduna why then the so called Christian population in the state could not defeat a Muslim-Muslim ticket twice?
Christians can boast like kerosene!
If you disagree that Kaduna state is 70 % Muslim go to hell!
The people that really put Christians where they belong is Niger state, they humbled the idolatry designated religion well well. When they nominated a Christian deputy governor in 1999-2007, they began to feel as though they are majority until 2007 when they were taken to oblivion!
Now na beg they dey beg for positions!
Kudos to the power state!

The truth is Muslim states are more accommodating to the Christians than the Christian states.

When we have muslims as 60% , 65 or 70% of the population they always pick Christians as deputy but if Christians have the upper hand in some states they completely ignore the Muslims. Look at how kogi, adamawa, kaduna before elrufai, nasarawa, Niger before 2007 always pick a Christian deputy.

But where Christians have upper hand they completely ignore the Muslims. Like Edo, ondo, ekiti, plateau, taraba etc


Some states like Niger and kaduna just woke from the slumbers. If you guys want to play religious politics. You don't have the numbers you should know

I tell you..

Let southern Kaduna breath,divide the state between Southern Kaduna and Northern Kaduna but Some fanatics will always want the state together,as they derive joy in marginalizing Southern Kaduna and yet will not Let them be....how wicked and devilish intended can Some people be. Make Northern Kaduna a sharia state and Let southern kaduna be,but they will want to leave together with so called 'infidels'. This is the definition of hypocrisy！

When was this statement made?
El- Rufia have stopped been governor since the 29th of May, 2023. I wonder why he should still be addressed as governor, instead of former governor.
